                  THE BROCKET SCHOOL

The original Brocket school district was divided into two halves. The southern
half was consolidated in 1903, but a $5,000.00 bond issue failed for the new
building. The next bond issue for $3,500.00 passed, so the new school was
constructed in 1904. In 1907 the north half of the district passed a $4,000.00
bond issue and added to the school.

This school, with the addition of a gymnasium in 1951, served the community for
nearly 60 years. After redistricting with Lakota School District in 1962, a new
$80,000.00 school building was part of a project approved by the voters of
Lakota School District. The present school building is a three room classroom
structure for grades one through six, adjacent to the existing gymnasium. Grades
seven through twelve are transported to Lakota for classes.

At the present time, there are 35 students with two teachers, Mrs. Phyllis Beck
and Mrs. Edith McMorran. The principal is Mr. Niel Dardis and Mrs. Dagny
Severtson serves as cook and custodian.
